August 2027 at a Glance
August is the handover month. It begins in full summer and ends with school supply lists, sports try-outs and the first autumn deadlines. Because it holds no federal holiday, August often becomes the month where postponed work finally gets done.

Holidays and Observances in August 2027
August 2027 has no federal holidays, which makes it one of the most uninterrupted working months of the year.
August carries Women's Equality Day on the 26th and National Aviation Day on the 19th, and in much of the country the school year restarts in the final two weeks — which makes the last fortnight of August one of the busiest planning windows on the household calendar.
| Date | Day | Holiday | Type |
|---|
| August 19, 2027 | Thursday | National Aviation Day | Observance |
| August 26, 2027 | Thursday | Women's Equality Day | Observance |

Planning Tips for August 2027
Reverse-plan the back-to-school date
Work backwards from the first day of school: supplies, uniforms, medical forms, haircuts and an earlier bedtime routine each need their own slot in the final fortnight of August.
Use the holiday-free month for deep work
With no federal breaks interrupting it, August offers uninterrupted stretches that are rare elsewhere in the calendar. It is the best month of the year to schedule a demanding project.
Prepare the autumn calendar now
Sports seasons, term dates and holiday travel all get fixed during August. Printing September through December and filling in the known dates saves a frantic week in early autumn.
How Many Working Days Are in August 2027?
August 2027 contains 22 working days once weekends and federal holidays are
removed from its 31 calendar days. These figures assume a standard Monday-to-Friday schedule;
shift and weekend workers will count differently.

Payroll periods, project estimates and billable-hour targets all depend on this number, and it varies by
several days from month to month — which is why estimating "about 22 days" every month quietly
distorts a quarter's planning.
Week Numbers in August 2027
August 2027 spans ISO week 30 through week 35. Under the ISO 8601 standard used across Europe and by
most project-management and payroll software, weeks run Monday to Sunday and week 1 is the week containing the
first Thursday of the year.
| Week number | Starts (Monday) | Ends (Sunday) |
|---|
| Week 30 | July 26 | August 1 |
| Week 31 | August 2 | August 8 |
| Week 32 | August 9 | August 15 |
| Week 33 | August 16 | August 22 |
| Week 34 | August 23 | August 29 |
| Week 35 | August 30 | September 5 |
If your workplace refers to "week 30" or "W35", these are the dates it means.
Our guide to how many weeks are in a year explains why some years
carry 53 numbered weeks and how the ISO rule decides where week 1 begins.
Note that American calendars usually start the week on Sunday, so a US week-of-the-year count can differ by one
from the ISO numbering above — you can switch the grid between Sunday and Monday starts using the
Week starts menu above.
